Dazza’s Reverse head Triumph Daytona T100, 1967.

My wife bought me this bike as 6 boxes of bits, incomplete and mixed with bits from other bike models and even parts of a home garden spray system. Parts were sourced from Australia, the USA, and Canada as well as NZ over 2 ½ yrs.

Why reverse the head?Cos I could!

Originally done as a joke, but ran so well I decided to keep it.

Is it original?I appreciate a well done restoration, but I’m not a restorer. Apart from the head reversal and forward controls, the front half of the bike is nearly original. The rear half, on the other hand, is almost completely custom made by hand. The rear frame uses the original metal, cut apart and re-bent. The swing arm is stretched 8” (200mm) and widened 1” (25mm) to fit a 140mm rear tyre.
